Looking for the perfect spot to blend exciting amenities and the beauty of nature? There is no better place to relax than the Sweetwater KOA!

The beauty and quiet setting of this KOA Campground make it a favorite with overnight campers as well as families enjoying an extended vacation or weekend getaway. Our sites are Big Rig friendly and our cabins make your stay feel a little more like home. We recently added some new amenities that everyone can enjoy. Challenge your family and friends to a game of Water Wars, take a spin on one of our pedal carts or bounce on our new jumping pillow. Spend some time relaxing at our catch and release pond, which is fully stocked with bass, blue gill and catfish. Our camp store features a variety of things to fill your needs as well as Garden Art made by local folk artists.

While you are staying with us, take some time to enjoy and experience all what the area surrounding us has to offer. Visit the Lost Sea that offers a unique cave experience, take a tour at Mayfield Dairy Farms or Sweetwater Valley Cheese Farm and going shopping at Sweetwater's Antique District. If you rather take in the scenery take a drive through the Cherokee National Forest or down the Cherohala Skyway. You can immerse yourself in nature with a walk down one of the local hiking trails, boating on a nearby lake or by bird watching. Our campground provides the perfect base camp for a day trip to the Great Smoky Mountains, Dollywood and many other fantastic attractions.

KOA Care Camps

This badge has been earned by this KOA Campground for compassion and support of KOA Care Camps. It is given out following our Big Weekend, and is in effect for one year.

Someday, cancer will be nothing more than a memory. Until that day, KOA Care Camps are here to bring hope, joy, healing and fun to kids with cancer. Working together, KOA owners, the KOA home office and great KOA campers like you raise funds for a single cause: to send kids with cancer to medically supervised camps where they have a great time with other kids who understand what they're going through. They do it all while receiving the treatments they need, absolutely free of charge! Until cancer is a memory, KOA Care Camps will continue to help these sweet kids make terrific memories of their own.
